Operating tips:GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407.The power seat motor has an auto-reset
overload protection circuit. If the motor
stops during operation, wait 30 sec-
onds, then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch
for a long period of time when the
engine is off. This will discharge the
battery.
See “Automatic drive positioner” (P.3-31)
for the seat position memory function (if so
equipped).

Forward and backward:GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407Moving the switch*1forward or backward
will slide the seat forward or backward to
the desired position.
Reclining:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407Move the recline switch*2backward until
the desired angle is obtained. To bring the
seatback forward again, move the switch
*2forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment of
the seatback for occupants of different
sizes for added comfort and to help obtain
proper seat belt fit. (See “Precautions on
seat belt usage” (P.1-14).) Also, the seat- back can be reclined to allow occupants to
rest when the vehicle is parked.

WARNING
.If the light does not illuminate with the
ignition switch pushed ON, have the
vehicle checked by an INFINITI retailer as
soon as possible.
. If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure.
Serious vehicle damage could occur
and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury. Check
the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label to turn
the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while driving
after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire
may be flat. If you have a flat tire,
replace it with a spare tire as soon as
possible. .
When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, the TPMS will not function
and the low tire pressure warning light
will flash for approximately 1 minute.
The light will remain on after the 1
minute. Contact your INFINITI retailer as
soon as possible for tire replacement
and/or system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by INFINITI could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
.The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
. If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of
less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS
may not operate correctly.
. Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the four wheels correctly.
Master warning lightGUID-BFD238A1-B056-42EA-B9A0-FCCF2B17501FWhen the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the master warning light illumi- nates if any of the following are displayed
on the dot matrix liquid crystal display:
.
No key warning
. Low fuel warning
. Low washer fluid warning
. Parking brake release warning
. Door/trunk open warning
. Loose fuel cap warning
. Check tire pressure warning
See “Dot matrix liquid crystal display” (P.2-
20).
Preview Function warning light
(orange; if so equipped)
GUID-B4E486C7-1748-4EBD-A37A-79C9F389E7E0The light comes on if there is a malfunction
in the Brake Assist (with Preview Function)
system.
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and set
the ICC system again.
If it is not possible to set the system or the
indicator stays on, it may indicate that the
system is malfunctioning. Although the
vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, have the vehicle checked at
an INFINITI retailer.

INDICATORS FOR MAINTENANCEGUID-5EA9FA72-B4A3-457B-B214-AB899857C8F6
1. Engine oil replacement indicatorGUID-9093AFD1-78A3-4D19-83A9-09CE6DADBB03This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for changing the engine oil.
You can set or reset the distance for
changing the engine oil. (See“Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-26).)
2. Oil filter replacement indicatorGUID-F7238B25-6F5D-425C-B3DE-A16E7C387E58This indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing the oil filter.
You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-26).)
3. Tire replacement indicatorGUID-77B7A7D1-C9B1-4B0B-A034-325DDE961E03This indicator appears when the customer
set distance comes for replacing tires. You
can set or reset the distance for replacing
tires. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-26).)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, including
tire pressure checks. See “Changing wheels
and tires” (P.8-40). Many factors including
tire inflation, alignment, driving habits and

Black plate (103,1)
[ Edit: 2012/ 1/ 17 Model: V36-D ]
road conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the tire
replacement indicator for a certain driving
distance does not mean your tires will last
that long. Use the tire replacement indicator
as a guide only and always perform regular
tire checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to a collision,
which could result in serious personal injury
or death.
4.“OTHER” indicatorGUID-D62188FD-F0C6-498B-8B24-505D6E1D491DThis indicator appears when the customer
set time comes for replacing items other
